Green Dome Mosque is delighted to announce that:
Eid Al-Adha
Will be celebrated on:
Monday 17th June 2024
At 10am sharp.
All welcomed to join us to celebrate this special occasion.
Jazak’Allah Khair
Celebrating Eid is a form of ‘Ibadah too, a form of praising Allah Rabbul Izzat and showing gratitude to Him.
We can do that through the Sunnah:
- Wake up early and take a bath
- Put on your best clean and modest clothing
- Before sitting for the Eid prayer, eat an odd number of dates
- From after Fajr, As you sit waiting for the Eid prayer, recite the Eid takbeer chant. Say this: Allahu Akbar 3x. Laa illaaha illa Allah. Allahu akbar 2x. wa Lillaahil Hamd
- Arrive at the prayer early to secure your spot. Otherwise, you’ll be rushing to find parking in a crammed parking lot.
- Eid prayer is 2 rakat. The Imam will instruct you on how many times to say Allahu Akbar at the start and 2nd rak’ahs.
- Listen to the Khutbah quietly.
- Greet those who you know and those who you don’t. Greet everyone.
- Celebrate this day by thanking Allah for what He has guided us to.
- Give away the meat for the needy and poor.
- If you can, take a different route home than the way you came.
- Make Dua for acceptance of sacrifices on this blessed Day.
We at Green Dome Mosque wish you a Meaty Eid Mubarak.
May Allah Rabbul Izzat accept your sacrifices. Ameen.
